FOr me: BOARD GAMES. I own about 25 of them, with Risk being just the simplest oldest most common one I have.
 

Simple: there are two decks of cards, Black Ones that have "QUESTIONS" and white ones that have "ANSWERS". As it is usually played, the players get a hand of white hands, and then a black question card is drawn and you - the player - need to select your answer to it, trying to be AS AWFUL AND HORRIBLE a person as possible.
The reason that I use "questions" and "answers" in quotes, is because many of them are just incomplete sentences or single words.
So you have a real example here:

In it, the white cards take the space of the Blank. Then, whatever is the most awful/funny/terrible one wins and you go on. On who win and how a winner is selected, the game itself has several options. I play it so that the best answer is voted.

when the offsite government attempts to impose its will upon the Delegate, that never works. 
 
 
I'm ok with the Delegate being Chief Executive, the Guardians being the 'cabinet' and having the Voice be the legislative body.

He wants to put the Delegate in charge of the off site forum.
 
While I personally think that is a terrible idea, you might want to try it again,  It might work for a while, who knows.

It won't do a thing about activity though.  People in TWP are lazy.  As long as we are having fun, we don't care about the structure.  Scrambling up the government yet again, won't bring people in who want to do work.  Because work, is not fun. 
TP found a way to draw people in to their forum with RP.  TWP doesn't like RP because it's too much work.  And frankly, their government is still operating on the backs of the same hand full of people it always has.  Just like TWP.  Just like TSP.  Just like TNP. etc...
 
It's always like that in NS GCRs.  Activity of the "general citizenry" is an illusion.  As far back as the PRP, this same struggle has gone on; How do we solicit more activity and entice more participation?
 
It's about energy levels and persistence.  Nothing will change unless you find at least one person who has the time to devote to the region and the insane level of energy required to drive things by themselves for a couple months.  And even then, when that one person crashes and burns out, the activity will plummet. 
 
Rather than changing the structure of the government again, why not make the forum government interesting and relevant?  Write a controversial law and scream about it on and off site.  Start an interesting project off site and then relentlessly promote it off site.  You can't start somethingand expect people to come on their own.  They need strong, persistent reminders and reasons to break their routines. 
 
Make it fun and they will change their routine to check the forum daily.
Make the forum appear active and they will check the threads once they come to the forum.
 
Everything else is a waste of energy.

An no.  I will not be the one to drive things.  I'm tired. 

Following the catastrophe this update, I very seriously doubt that there's any reason to keep Russo on these forums.

His posting on the RMB show no regret for his idiotic actions. Let's just be rid of him before he mucks up again.

This is all so confusing.
 
Who exactly is on TWP's side?
 
Have I been supporting a traitor, URA?
 
Do I need another cup of coffee?
 
I only know the answer to one of these questions

Hello TWP.
 
I settled this nation in TWP a few days ago and joined the regional forums yesterday.  These two complementary events have led to an inevitable climax:  a formal introduction.
 
So, here it is....
 
Heeyo!
 
 
My Nation...
